Blackheath Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: BHR) (FRANKFURT: 04B) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the second tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement. The Company is also pleased to provide an update on its work on the Covas Tungsten Project.

Private Placement

The Company raised gross proceeds of $221,000 in the second tranche of its private placement through the issuance of 552,500 units at a price of $0.40 per unit (the "Units"). Each Unit comprises one common share of the Company and one-half of one non-transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.53 per share for a period of 30 months from the closing of the private placement. In the second tranche, the Company paid cash finders' fees totalling $12,000.

James Robertson, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, purchased 52,500 Units in the second tranche, representing approximately 3% of the Units sold in both tranches of the private placement.

The Company closed the first tranche of $500,000 on December 17, 2014 and has raised a total of $721,000 through the issue of 1,802,500 Units in the combined first and second tranches. The Company may choose to close one or more additional tranches of the private placement to raise a total of up to $2,000,000.

Blackheath intends to expend the proceeds raised from the Private Placement on exploration of its past-producing tungsten projects in northern Portugal, including Covas, Borralha, Bejanca, Adoria and Vale das Gatas and for general working capital purposes.

All securities issued or issuable under this tranche of the private placement are subject to a hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws expiring on June 25, 2015, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws outside Canada.

Update on Covas Tungsten Project

The Company is pleased to report that the Phase 3 diamond drill program on the Covas Tungsten Project has now been completed. Seventeen shallow diamond drill holes, totaling 1,337 metres were drilled in 6 different target areas: Lapa Grande, Muito Seco, Boundary, Castelo, Valdarcas and Telheira North.

James Robertson, CEO of Blackheath Resources, stated, "Our goal of upgrading the non-compliant historical resource to a current compliant resource is almost complete and will be released shortly."

Covas is a past-producing open pit and shallow underground tungsten mine and remaining historical resources on the property have been estimated at 922,900 tonnes of 0.78% WO3 (tungsten trioxide) by Union Carbide Corp. in 1980, based on work including 329 drill holes on the property. Mineralization is open to expansion. The price of tungsten has increased significantly in recent years and is currently approximately $280 per metric tonne unit (10kg) of contained tungsten trioxide. (These resources are historical in nature, prepared by Union Carbide Corp. in 1980 and are considered relevant. However, neither the Company nor a qualified person has done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources and the Company is not considering the historical estimates as current mineral resources, and the historical estimate should not be relied upon.)

The Covas property, which was awarded a three year Experimental Mining Licence (August 20, 2013) is located about 100 kilometres north of Porto, Portugal's second largest city. Blackheath holds the property under an option from Avrupa Minerals Ltd. under a previously announced amendment to the Covas Joint Venture earn-in agreement (see news release of May 12, 2014).
